The Svalbard Line – An Arctic Voyage to the Edge of the World
Discover one of Hurtigruten’s most extraordinary Signature Voyages on The Svalbard Line, a 15-day all-inclusive cruise from Bergen to Svalbard and back. Following the route of Hurtigruten’s historic summer sailings, this unforgettable journey combines Norway’s spectacular coastline with the remote wilderness of the High Arctic, all beneath the magical Midnight Sun.
Sailing north from Bergen, you’ll visit some of Norway’s most iconic destinations, including Åndalsnes, the Lofoten Islands, Tromsø and the North Cape, before crossing the Barents Sea to the remote Svalbard archipelago. Along the way, enjoy longer stays in port, allowing plenty of time to explore picturesque fishing villages, dramatic fjords and authentic Norwegian communities.
The highlight of the voyage is arriving in Longyearbyen, the world’s northernmost town, where colourful buildings sit beneath towering mountains and wild Arctic landscapes. You’ll also visit Ny-Ålesund, one of the world’s most northerly permanently inhabited settlements and an international Arctic research station at 78° North. This remarkable destination offers an incredible opportunity to experience one of the planet’s last great wildernesses, where wildlife can include Arctic foxes, reindeer, seabirds and, occasionally, polar bears.
